Pleora Technologies, the world's leading supplier of high-performance video interfaces, today unveiled the industry's first family of embedded hardware products for integrating USB3 Vision™-compliant video connectivity into cameras and imaging systems. Using Pleora's iPORT™ NTx-U3 Embedded Video Interface offerings, camera and system manufacturers can fast-track the development of high-performance, differentiated USB3 Vision products, while reducing technical risk and costs.

USB3 Vision, ratified in February 2013, standardizes the transport of high-speed imaging and video data over the widely available USB 3.0 bus. Pleora contributed to the initial technical specifications and marketing development of the standard, and serves on the USB3 Vision Technical Committee.

The iPORT NTx-U3 Embedded Video Interface - Compact embedded hardware that provides a fast, low-risk way to integrate USB 3.0 connectivity in cameras and imaging systems. The hardware converts data at throughputs up to 3 Gb/s, with packetized video sent at low, consistent latency over the USB 3.0 link. To speed time-to-market, an evaluation kit enables the rapid design of prototypes and proof-of-concept demonstrations, often without requiring hardware development; and

All video interfaces in Pleora's iPORT NTx-U3 product family include the eBUS™ SDK (software development kit), a feature-rich toolkit for Windows and Linux that allows manufacturers to develop video applications in short timeframes. The eBUS SDK complies fully with the GenICam™ standard for the computer control of cameras and other imaging systems that transmit video.

The iPORT NTx-U3 product family is now fully available. For full details on the iPORT NTx-U3 product family, visit www.pleora.com/our-products/embedded-hardware.
